Ink arrived quickly and we were able to continue work flow without delay. We've tried off brands of ink but they do not compare with the quality of the Brother ink cartridges. The vibrant colors make the final product look professional and appealing to those we must present the paperwork to. With any presentation ease of reading is important. The clarity of the document is a plus along with ink that can be depended on to be consistent and not blotchy as some of the off brands often do.

I am disappointed that the colors are not as vivid and bright as what I feel they should be and what I used to get on my Hewlett Packard printer. I do a lot of color printing and would like to see the colors have a lot more vividness to them instead of being somewhat washed-out. I am pleased that I do not seem to use as much ink with my Brothers printer as I did with the Hewlett Packard printer. I would much prefer to have a better quality color than what I seem to be getting. Ideally I would prefer to get beter quiality color and better economy on the amount of ink consumed.

We've been using these ink cartridges for several years now, I haven't had any issues with the a defective cartridge which is a good thing considering the expense. A little steep but the print quality is great, we are using these for a printer in a small business setting that is growing. If you're using these for personal use they'll last much longer but we've had to step up to a copier as we were going through ink like crazy & these weren't as cost effective in that sense. Again, the quality is great for an office with minimal printing or a personal printer at home.

I've always preferred to use the Brother ink cartridges in our Brother printer because they provide superior quality and dry quickly. The ink also lasts longer than cheaper brands claiming to be the same size. I also really like the separate cartridges for yellow, blue and magenta so each color cartridge can be changed only when that specific color of ink is low. The super high yield cartridges last a really long time, and they save quite a bit of money over buying the smaller cartridges. I'm also a big fan of Staples cartridge recycling program.
